The salon
The art of care, born of a passion
A salon devoted to grooming, accessories and quality pet food, between Bastille and Le Marais, where every visit is designed as a moment of well-being.
Our story
Nina Dalle, a passion that became a profession
After seventeen years in the prestigious world of fine jewellery on place Vendôme, Nina chose to devote her high standards, her refinement and her eye for detail to a world close to her heart: that of animals, and to bring it the greatest kindness.
From this meeting of the elegance of luxury and a tenderness for animals, a place like no other was born: a salon devoted to grooming, accessories and quality pet food, where every visit is designed as a moment of well-being.
In our grooming salon for dogs and cats, we offer a warm, refined and soothing setting, where dogs and cats are cared for as if they were part of our own family.
“True luxury is not measured by the value of a service, but by the emotion it brings.”
Our philosophy
A passion for animals, the rigour of professionals
Our philosophy rests on three essential values: passion, expertise and respect for the animal.
IPassion
For us, grooming is far more than a job: it is a vocation, a relationship of trust and a great deal of love, every day.
IIExpertise
We combine professional expertise, gentleness and patience to give each animal personal care, suited to its character and its needs.
IIIRespect for the animal
At Nina Dalle, every dog is unique and deserves very special attention.
Our greatest reward: seeing every dog leave happy, relaxed and keen to come back!
A groom, step by step
Before, during, after
The team
Exceptional expertise
Our groomers are all state-qualified, medal winners and champions of shows and competitions. Among them, an international dog grooming judge makes sure every groom reaches the highest standard. They train continuously with partner vets.
Groomers and master groomers.
Of experience across the team.
The Cocker Spaniel, the Pomeranian, the Yorkshire Terrier and the Maltese. All breeds welcome, even difficult coats.
For elderly or convalescent dogs, and those with special needs.
A craft
Grooming, a craft
“A quick clip and a rounded head is not grooming. Real grooming takes years to learn, to understand and to perfect.”
Demanding training
Two to three years of study, a state diploma and an apprenticeship master. Then time, and devotion to the animal.
The school of the show ring
The great groomers come from breeding and from shows. There they win titles such as Best of Breed, or even Best in Show: a matter of mastery, not vanity.
Each breed, its own technique
Structure, build, particular needs: more than 200 breeds, suitable cosmetics, precise blends. Every movement is thought through and carried out with rigour.
The shop
Accessories and pet food
In our shop area, the essentials of life with an animal, at home and when travelling. Our accessories for dogs and cats combine design, comfort and durability.
Natural food
Because health and beauty also come from the bowl, we buy exclusively from European makers: dry food, organic treats and BARF.
For grooming, natural, high-end professional products, most of them imported from the United States: the range used at dog shows.
A commitment from the heart
In the service of animals
The Paris Fire Brigade’s canine unit (Brigade cynophile des sapeurs-pompiers de Paris)
The Nina Dalle salon is the only one authorised to groom the unit’s dogs. A rare distinction, and a source of pride that we cherish with humility.
Volunteering
Deeply committed to animal welfare, Nina gives her time to:
- the Fondation Brigitte Bardot
- the Fondation Stéphane Lamart
- YouCare
- the guide dogs for the blind of the Quinze-Vingts hospital

Nina Dalle, from place Vendôme to boulevard Beaumarchais
Before opening her salon, Nina Dalle worked for seventeen years in fine jewellery on place Vendôme. She has kept the precision and the taste for detail that she now puts into every groom.
The Swiss magazine Bolero came to photograph her at the salon for its “Good Boy” series: ringed hands, immaculate coats, her two professions brought together.
